As someone who specializes in treating addiction, I can say firsthand that Candi Cross has successfully told the transformative story of Steve Knuth, whose addiction almost destroyed him. Instead, through recovery and his reemergence as a warrior of hope and action, he resurrects and brings life to rural America and the farms we rely on to feed us."</p><p><em>-</em><strong><em>Caprice Haverty, Ph.D., forensic/clinical psychologist</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>"Steve Knuth's story is both heartwarming and heartbreaking, yet it is a story that begs to be told. For anyone who has struggled with an addiction, or has known someone who has, this is a must-read. Steve's story is one of hope-hope that through faith, became the reality of a changed life. While the Knuth family has a God-given gift of starting and running successful businesses, Steve's real success is no longer measured alone in what he has attained, but in who he has become-a man of strength, integrity, and wisdom. It is a privilege to call him, 'friend.'"</p><p><em>-</em><strong><em>Tom Carlson, former Nebraska State senator</em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>"Candi Cross provides an unfiltered look at the juxtaposition between the good and bad of an addict. Leading with her own experience of growing up in a single-parent household, Candi showcases the love that endures even with the constant struggle of daily interactions with someone that never recovers. This authentic insight immediately allows the reader to connect with Steve Knuth and his journey of morality, self-reflection, and the impact of someone struggling with alcoholism in a small Midwest community." </p><p><em>-</em><strong><em>Kathryn F. Burmeister, Esq. </em></strong></p><p><br></p><p>"A clear, courageous and insightful true story of the daily struggle of living with alcoholism, addiction and recovery. A genuine and honest look into real-life struggles with mental health, relationships and finding success and a purpose. Steve Knuth, by telling his story, is another voice helping to increase understanding and decrease the stigma of living with addiction and mental health challenges." </p><p>-<strong><em>Lori Maney Lentini, author, </em>Anxiety Insights: What Gets to Us and What Gets Us Through </strong></p><p><br></p><p>"Only through telling our stories and embracing our individual acts of vulnerability will we begin to deconstruct the barrier of stigma and usher in an era when those in need receive the help they deserve. This book is a major step towards accomplishing those goals in a way that both entertains and leaves the reader with a feeling of objective purpose and satisfaction. Bravo!" </p><p>-<strong><em>Jay Shifman, mental health, substance misuse and recovery speaker, host of Choose Your Struggle podcast</em></strong></p><p> </p><p>"As evidenced in Candi's striking chronicle of Steve Knuth's life, recognizing your alcoholism is one thing. Committing to lifelong sobriety is quite another, employing every resource you have to fight it and then shape a meaningful life so beneficial for the community. This is the type of story that leaves a mark in the world. There is help. There is hope. There are heroes. Steve's flaws pale in comparison to his own mark." </p><p> -<strong><em>Susan MacKenty Brady, CEO, Simmons University Institute for Inclusive Leadership </em></strong></p><br>
